Importing audiobooks from Overdrive not showing up

I've downloaded OverDrive so that I can download audiobooks from the library.
I've installed and updated all necessary programs, gone into iTunes and chosen manually managing files under my iPod Nano as suggested, and I've even been able to Add Folder to Library where the audiobook files were converted from WMA...but now I can't find the converted files in iTunes.
What happened to the audiobook? What am I doing wrong?
TIA

I'm not sure what Overdrive is and what some of audiobook files you refer to but what I do is get the books on CD and then just manually drag the files from each disk into folders & playlists I create. You have to do this with the organize and copy options off so the tracks will stay in the correct order. I haven't messed with the digital audio books as yet from the library, they have a due date and I don't like the pressure, I have been very happy with the CDs and I can delete when I'm done. Hope it helps.

Importing songs from CDs - not showing up in my Library

I am aving trouble importing songs from CDs. I completed the process as instructed - using the "import this CD" button (I have done this many times successfully).
The import process ran OK. When the Import process completed, I looked in my music Library and the songs were not there.
I repeated the process - same result. Nothing in my music library.
What should I do?

When I load the CD, iTunes recognizes it and asks me if I want to Import the CD.
When I click on "Import CD", the song titles are retreived and show up. The iTunes bar at the top of the screen shows "Importing track 1" or "Importing the song by title". Each song is imported, and I can see each song being impotrted via the iTunes bar at the top of the screen. iTunes shows that the CD has been imported, and the system dings when the import is done.
This is exactly the same as every other time I've imported CDs. The only difference is that the songs do not show up in the library.
Thanks

Why do imported hyperlinks from Word not show up in Indesign Hyperlinks panel?

ID CS6 Windows 7
I am able to copy and paste hyperlinked text from Word into ID and everything works ok-- when exported to PDF the links work fine.
except now client wants to rename the text of the hyperlink- but there seems to be no way to even see what the URL destination is.
None of the Word links show up in the Hyperlinks panel.
I have to find out the URL and delete the original linked text and redo them.

Um. Are you not talking about proper URLs? I kind of assumed you were :)
Actually, hyperlinks *should* import just nicely into ID, not only plain URLs but also those with alternative text. But if they do, they'd show in the hyperlink panel ...
Can you check if they are mentioned in the Hyperlink Destination list in your ID document? That would confirm or disprove they are actually present, at some level.

Problems downloading audiobooks from Overdrive [Windows 8] to my IPod Nano 7th gen. Not showing up on the Ipod. Any suggestions?

problems downloading audiobooks from Overdrive [Windows 8] to my IPod Nano 7th gen. Not showing up on the Ipod. Any suggestions?

The iPod's screen indicates that the iPod is connected?
In Windows, the iPod will not appear as removable storage, unless it is set in iTunes to Enable disk use. By default, it is NOT set to Enable disk use.
In iTunes, if the sidebar (along left side of window) is hidden, from the iTunes menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar. When the iPod is connected, it should appear in the sidebar, under DEVICES. It does not appear there?

Can no longer transfer audiobooks from overdrive to ipod nano 6

Can no longer transfer audiobooks from overdrive to ipod nano 6. Diagnostics: Connectivity test-ipod found. Sync test -ipod not found. This problem began about 2 weeks ago. I downloaded itunes update 12.1.0.71 about 1 week ago. I'm on Windows 7.

Do you mean a playlist created by Overdrive?
I downloaded the newest version of ODM yesterday. Couldn't do it from within the application, had to uninstall/reinstall it. Here's what's happening now with WMA, which is my preferred format:
-Instead of just moving the audiobook and cover graphic and all that over as in the past, now ODM creates a separate playlist under 'Books' in your device. Problem is, only some (seemingly random) tracks go over there. The others just show up under 'Books' but not in the specified playlist, so you have to drag them over in iTunes.
-If you stop listening, it starts over from the beginning next time you're ready to resume, so if you expect to find your place again right away like in the good old days, think again.
-For me the WORST PART is only so much data of that sort is permitted under 'Books' so it seems, because after a certain threshold the transferred parts of books become greyed out and cannot be played. You are limited to far less data in a period of time than previously. I used to be able to keep several books on my device at once and listen to multiple things depending on my mood etc. Now I can fit about 2-3 big books, or 4-6 smaller ones, MUCH less than previously was possible, which is a problem if you've waited for a popular title at the library that you don't have the room for (even though you have plenty of memory in the device).
All in all, I think ODM need to get their act together. We should not allow them to think they are done with this upgrade, the fixes might be okay for temporary, but they are unacceptable for a permanent format. They have a phone number on their website. I left a message. Others have been tweeting them too, not sure of the contact info.
Good luck everyone. Post back here if you find something out.

Contacts from 2010 not showing info in 2013

I recently upgraded from 2010 to 2013. When the contacts moved over i cannot find all of the information like anniversary date that was in the details tab of 2010. Is there an icon or setting that i am missing to see all of this previous information?

Hi
As per the information and details provided by you, Contacts from 2010 not showing info in 2013, then please follow these steps: -
After switch from Outlook 2010 to 2013, simply press
CTRL+3 to see an overview of all your Contacts folders. If the folder is there and holds your contacts, then either the folder has not been set as an
Outlook Address Book or Outlook Address Book Service is broken in your mail profile.
If the contacts are not in the contact folder, then you either forgot to select the folder when creating an export, or didn’t select the folder when importing the
PST-File. You can take a fresh copy of your backup or the pst-file that you imported from.
Then connect to the pst-file in Outlook via:
File > Open > Open Outlook Data File
Now, check the contacts folder again. If you did not find your Contacts in that pst-file, you can select them all
(CTRL+A) and move them (CTRL+SHIFT+V) or copy them
(CTRL+SHIFT+Y) to your main contact folder.
I hope this information will be helpful for you.
Thanks and regards

Is It Possible to Transfer an Audiobook from Overdrive to An iTunes Library?

I have had no problems transfering audiobooks from Overdrive Media Console for Windows to my iPod Nano 5th Ge connnected to iTunes. However, I cannot figure out whether I can transfer the audiobooks to an iTunes audiobooks library so I can listen to them using iTunes. I have not even been able to figure out how to create an iTunes audiobooks library.
1. Is it possible to listen to audiobooks downloaded to Overdrive using iTunes? If so, how?
2. How do you create an iTunes audiobooks library in the iTunes Media folder?
3. Are there any free sample audiobooks in the iTunes Store? That should automatically create an audiobooks library in the iTunes Media folder.

Hi mates,
In case if you want to use the same app into different iphone. For example you have viber, whats app in your device 1 and you want to have this applications in device 2. You can sync an applications to itunes from device 1 and those apps will be saved in an itunes, even if you disconnect USB from laptop-phone.Connect you device 2 to itunes and syn your selected applications. It will come that way.
Device 1: Iphone
Device 2: Iphone
For an understanding i have named as device 1&2.

How to import Audiobooks from MacBook to Ipad2

How to import AudioBooks from Macbook OS 10.4.1 onto an Ipad2?
I have many audiobooks which I am currently attempting to have re-loaded via the Apple Support network and have requested that these Audiobooks purchased in good faith between 2008 - 2009 be made available for download on our recently purchased Ipad2 via ITunes. This download procedure has worked very well for the 18 songs purchased in the same period. However, I have followed a discussion on the Apple Support community by TASA posted on the Nov 13 2011 and have made a similar polite request to the Apple Support afficionados, so far with no success. My question is this How can i transfer the Audiobook files which appear as m4b across to the Ipad2. I cannot sync the MacBook because the operating system is a mismatch. Attempting to use a camera connection kit by Apple and using an SD card to copy a single audi file has not worked. What other recourse of action is there?
It is all very well suggesting that Audiobooks can only be downloaded once, as has been mentioned by a discussion pundit. However this was not in the Terms and Conditions from 2008, of which I have a copy.

Back in 2008 all media purchases from the iTunes Store were subject to a one time only download policy. iTunes would have regularly reminded you to backup your purchases unless you chose to suppress such messages.
With your audiobooks in an iTunes library you can take the opportunity to make secondary backup copies now on removable media or networked storage.
I don't understand what you mean by this:
I cannot sync the MacBook because the operating system is a mismatch.
If you download and install the latest version of iTunes to your computer it should be capable of communicating with the device and will let you copy the audiobook files across. If the iPad is set up to sync with a different library/computer then copy the audiobook files to that. If your iPad is not set to sync with any library, and your concern is that you will lose data if you attempt to associate it with the library on your computer then this method should work for you...
You should be able to:
Backup the device to the new installation
Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
Restore the device from the backup
This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.

Importing Audiobooks from CD - Media Kind Greyed Out

I am importing audiobooks from CD and all the relevant Options for audiobooks are greyed out.
"Media Kind" is greyed out
"Remember position" is greyed out
"Skip when shuffling" is greyed out
I can make the changes after I've imported them, but I really want to do it before I import as it simply makes it easier on me (which is to say, it saves me time, and time is precious).
Any idea why these would be greyed out for importing audio CDs?
At least I can still join tracks.
Hmmm ... I suppose I should see if it's also greyed out when I import a music CD, but I haven't bought a music CD is years and have already imported all the one I do own.

Any idea why these would be greyed out for importing audio CDs?
Because this info is not in the tags for the audio CD. They are part of the file after you import it.
This info is part of the *CD Info.cidb* file., which is where iTunes stores the CD info. The CD info is not stored in iTunes.
See this -> How iTunes remembers audio CDs
I suppose I should see if it's also greyed out when I import a music CD
Yes it is.

I have trouble transferring audiobooks from Overdrive Media Console.

I have trouble transferring audiobooks from Overdrive Media Console. Sometimes the book does not transfer. Sometimes it winds up in music.

I agree that transferring audiobooks to an iPhone using Overdrive is very flaky. My biggest issue now is that when I do a transfer, about every 3rd or 4th segment doesn't transfer successfully. I have to go back and select those and transfer again and then they are out of order with no apparent way to put them in the correct order. So when I start listening to the book, I have to closely monitor when I am at the end of a part so that I can manually select the next part.
My latest transfer of a book with 14 parts placed 2 versions in Audiobooks with the order 5, 12, 1, 2, 3, 6, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14. (missing parts 4, 7, and 11)
When I went back to Overdrive and selected parts 4, 7, and 11 to transfer, my iPhone then had a playlist with the book with the order 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, 4, 7, 11.
Crazy!!

After upgrade to ios7 on iphone parts of audiobooks from Overdrive will notsync. sync.I'm using usb to desktop to transfer.

After upgrade to ios7 on iphone, parts of audiobook from Overdrive will not sync. I'm using usb to desktop to transfer.

Plug in the memory stick and it should open then create a New Folder and drag and drop the contents from the memory stick to the new folder you created. Remove the original memory stick all the information should be in the new folder you created. Now plug in the new memory stick with nothing on it when it opens drag the folder with the contents from the original memory stick folder and all into the new memory stick that opened and there you have it.

Importing from DVD not showing full video

I'm trying to import a video (VOB file) from a DVD, but the full frame of the video is not showing. The frame size that is importing seems to be importing as a different frame size than the video is and I can't seem to change it. The import seems to be cropping it. If I adjust the size in the Program Sequence window, it is showing the cropped version of the video.
Can any of the other files on the DVD be imported such as the IFO file?

... What other formats can iMovie & iDVD use? What do you recommend? ...just dv. and for stills jpeg, tifff.. and for music aiff, mp3... but that was not your question any other video-codec gets converted/has to be converted...
... which are apparently very, very big - one half-hour folder was 6 GB...rule: 1h video = ~13Gb... that is the amount of data on tape... iM uses a digital copy of that. many other codecs do a much better compression, BUT lossy!
... many times bigger than it needs to be...no, a video-DVD is meant for playback only...the compression codec just stores the delta(=difference) from frame to frame... for edit purposes, you need the info of EVERY frame on tape...
... How should I adjust the settings if I want to get an hour's worth of video & audio on a standard 4.7 GB blank DVD-R?
...you don't do settings using iDVD. this app needs a dv stream to work in the highest possible quality. use the export to iDVD feature of iM.
in case, you spend a few k$, you can buy DVDSP, including a tool called Compressor... after learning a few years to handle it, you can result smaller files with higher quality.....

IMPORT ISSUE: LR 5 NOT SHOWING ANY PICTURES FROM ANY FOLDERS ON IMPORT

Hi there I am using LR5 on Macbook pro OSX vs 10.9.5. I am attempting to import photos from a folder on my hard drive. I cannot get LR5 to recognise any photographs in the folder. Indeed it will not recognise any photographs in any of my system folders or on my external drive. I have checked for XMP files as I heard they can be a conflict but there are none in my folders. I have attempted importing via different methods including drag and drop onto the LR icon but to no avail. This is confusing as all was working fine until recently. I am in desperate need to get this fixed as I am on a shoot tomorrow and need LR! Please can anyone help? Many thanks Steve Please see a screengrab below.

OK...very strange. I had the 'Destinations' tab collapsed. When I clicked to expand it the photos suddenly showed up!
I was attempting to 'Add' photos before (in which case the Destinations is irrelevant) In ''Copy'' or 'Move' the destinations seems to want to be expanded as a tab. Now when I go back into 'Add' the picture imports are working. Thanks for your help and I hope that this might help someone else.
